Taiwan is a beautiful small island with mostly semi-tropical climate. Its mountainous terrain and fertile soil provides ideal conditions for the growth of the best tea in the world. Dongfang Meiren Tea's harvest season is limited to the summer because of the unique farming method.

Dongfand Meiren Tea is almost always produced without insecticides to encourage a common pest, the tea green leafhopper (Jacobiasca Formosana), to feed on the leaves, stems, and buds. After the plant has bitten by the tea green leafhopper, the leaves do not grow after the summer. The insect bites start the oxidation of the leaves and tips and add a sweet note to the tea. The leaves can be fermented and baked into rich, yet sweet tea with a honey or ripe fruit aroma. The unique cultivation process is essential to its quality.

At NICO & ROBO, we source our Dongfang Meiren Tea from multiple small tea farms in Hsinchu County, Taiwan. Once a production is scheduled, we began the tea collection process from the tea farmers followed by a timely process to produce the tea extract. Once the Dongfang Meiren Tea Extract is made, it can quickly be in the production line of our GMP certified manufacturing facility.

We are still new and we do not product a lot, however, we are glad that we started this chapter and we hope that we will continue to grow from here.
